TAG-IN-A-BAG

Single door RF/ID Proximity Access Control Unit

1. INTRODUCTION

The TIAB (Tag-in-a-Bag) is a versatile weather-resistant proximity
access control unit (fig. 1), designed to limit access to restricted
areas, while permitting authorized people to enter. This product is
the best in its class - using state-of-the-art proximity (non-contact)
RF/ID technology. It was designed to serve your customers’
needs, while making installation and use simple and easy.

The TIAB control unit includes a keypad with an internal proximity
reader and a display that provide full access control operation.

The TIAB control unit can be programmed to offer one of two
security levels for opening the door:

• Level 1 (default): Valid tag only.

• Level 2: Valid tag and

code.

The TIAB control unit transmits 125 kHz RF signal. A valid
proximity tag (fig. 3), presented to the control unit or to the
optional external reader (fig. 2), transmits a coded RF signal back
to the TIAB control unit, causing it to energize an output relay.
The optional external reader is designed for installations in which
an additional reader is required. It is connected to the TIAB
control unit via 4 wires.

The TIAB control unit is installed adjacent to the secured door’s
frame. It is connected to the door’s EMS (Electro-Magnetic Strike)
or magnetic lock and operates by either a 12V DC or AC power
supply. The TIAB control unit includes internal non-volatile
memory, unaffected by power failure. The internal memory stores
data of up to 250 tags and PIN codes (used for security level 2
only). Each PIN is composed of 4 digits.

PIN (Personal Identification Number)

The proximity tags (fig. 3) are
totally sealed and do not require
any maintenance.

The tags are powered from the RF
signal transmitted from the TIAB
control unit.

In a case of loss or theft of a tag, the tag data can be easily
deleted from the TIAB control unit memory list.
The standard TIAB package includes 10 user tags. Additional
tags are available.

3. MOUNTING

r

(op

)

per

)

(

k

)

A. Remove the case closure screw.
B. Insert a screwdriver in the bottom recess of the base, and

use it to separate the base from the keypad assembly.

C. Place the base on the installation surface, mark the drilling

points, drill the holes and insert plastic anchors, if necessary.

D. Fit the base into the rubber gasket and use the 3 mounting

screws to attach the base and gasket to the selected surface

CAUTION! If you are installing several TIAB units or TIAB
with RDR-1B, locate units at least 60 cm (2 ft) apart.

Attention! The Tamper

switch is activated when the
TIAB control unit’s front
cover is removed or when
the base is forcibly pulled
from the mounting surface,
which causes tamper switch
tab to break (see figure 4).
It is therefore especially
important to firmly attach
this tab to the wall with a
long screw.

Figure 4. Base and Rear Gasket

IMPORTANT! Do not install the RDR-1B on a metal surface or a metal door frame, since this decreases the read range significantly.
If you have to install the reader on a metal surface, use a spacer so that the reader will be at least 1 cm (3/8 in.) away from the metal.
You may use RDR-BACK which is an optionally available spacer designed specifically for this purpose.

4. WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACCESS CONTROL

4.1 Wiring Gauges and Routing

Use # 20 AWG or larger for connections between relay and door
strike or other switching devices. All other connections can be
made with # 22 AWG or larger. Route the wires through the slot
in the rubber sealing gasket (see figure 4) and the recessed entry
channel in the TIAB control unit base. Verify that there is no
contact between uninsulated wires and the printed circuit board.

4.2 Wiring Instructions

The connections to the TIAB terminal block are shown in fig. 5.
A. Connect one lead of the door strike to one of the hardware

(door strike) power supply terminals. Connect the other lead
of the door strike to terminal No. 10 (N.O.) of the TIAB.

Note: If you are using a magnetic door lock, connect one of

the leads to one of the hardware power supply terminals.
Connect the other lead to terminal No. 11 (N.C.) of the TIAB.

B. Connect the other power supply terminal to terminal 12 (COM).
C. Connect the TIAB power supply leads between terminals 8 (+)

and 9 (-). When using DC power supply, verify proper polarity.
When using AC power supply, disregard polarity.

D. Connect the optional remote Request-To-Exit push-button

(N.O.) or PIR motion detector contacts (N.O.) across terminals
3 and 2.

Note: For the external reader wiring and mounting instructions,
refer to the external reader installation instructions.

5. WIRING FOR INTEGRATION WITH AN ALARM SYSTEM

The integration with an alarm system is shown in figure 6.

A. Perform steps A to D in section 4.2.

B. Connect the Panic output (terminal 7), the AuxOut output

(terminal 6), the Door Ajar output (terminal 4) and the Forced
Entry output (terminal 5) to the appropriate zone of the alarm

system, or to any other indicating device (relay, LED, buzzer,
etc.). All these outputs are of the open collector type (see
figure 7).

C. Connect the Ground (terminal 2) to the alarm system

ground terminal.

D. Connect the Tamper terminals (13 & 14) to a 24-hour

zone of the alarm system.

E. Connect the optional Door Position detector (N.C.

magnetic switch), between terminals 1 and 2.

Caution!

When operating the TIAB control unit by AC
power, disregard polarity, but note that
external buzzers (which are connected to the
AuxOut or Panic outputs) require a separate
DC power supply, as shown in figure 8.
